This week we're starting off with a bit of follow-up on our last show, talking a bit more about the nature of creativity and more specifically on the drive that is often key to those who find success in the arts. From there me move into gaming for a bit, talking about how there are too many games which don't bother with innovation and settle for imitation. That discussion leads pretty naturally into the silly battle lines that people draw between franchises (think Star Wars vs. Star Trek) and even further the dangerous potential of zealotry. Enjoy!
